Kind of fun to play the first hour and a half, then it becomes monotonous (all the quests have the same objective: "go to the dungeon and slay all the monsters") and the level where you have to escape has a very difficult part, I tried it twice without even getting close to achieving it, and finally I gave up. There's not much motivation really.
So open, so many places to visit, so many NPCs, so many quests, too many spells, potions... You can easily get lost here. I think I played about 150 hours until I finished the main quest and then I continue every so often.
I'm enjoying this classic grid-based RPG even more than a more technically contemporary one like Legend of Grimrock, although its puzzles are pretty basic.
The great classic RPG in this enhanced edition is revitalized with graphics on the level of its sequel, the expansions and three new companions, which makes it even more difficult to decide on a party formation. Nice to go through this story again.
Like Baldur's Gate but with Chinese mythology and an interesting system for creating objects; the story is pure, correctly narrated, without outbursts, both the main and secondary quests are on the right track. It is a super immersive game.
I have lowered this great game one point only because, in my perspective, it lacks more depth in terms of the character and his background to be precisely an RPG. Also, it's pretty limited in terms of dialogue and I'm not a big fan of its skill development system.
